There are a number of reasons why leaders decide to reinvent their careers. For some, their careers have plateaued, keeping them stuck in the same position for far longer than they anticipated. Other change careers completely, starting over in a new discipline. Then there are those approaching retirement.

Holding a higher vision of members of your team helps them to perceive themselves as they haven’t before. It helps them to trust you and each other, strengthening their willingness to go the extra mile. This is not about projecting your ideas about their potential, it is about being curious and allowing their potential to emerge.
